Tree Care in Salisbury, NY

If you're looking at the trees in your Salisbury yard and wondering about their health, you're not alone. Most of our homes were built in the 1950s, which means the trees are now about 70 years old and entering a critical phase. The most common issues I see here trace back to the original landscaping choices. Builders often planted fast-growing trees like silver maple and Norway maple for quick shade. While they grew fast, silver maples have weak wood and aggressive surface roots that can damage foundations and walkways, and Norway maples are invasive, crowding out our native oaks and sugar maples. You can't see inside a tree from the outside. A tree can look full and green while having serious internal decay from past storms or construction damage, a problem that might only become obvious when a major limb fails.
